Springtime for Me in the South

Ahhhh spring time. The sun is shining, the air feels fresh, and of course, crawfish boils. This spring has been, well somewhat eventful and somewhat not eventful whatsoever. Nate. oh Nate. We really didn't keep in touch over spring. We talked about music, summer plans, nothing to get excited over. (Well actually there was a bit of flirtation, but nothing to write home about).  Wait I lied! He was watching [insert film] and how I reminded him of [insert really amazing, gorgeous actress]. I was really flattered! 


Unfortunately, I was amongst the people who were hit hard from the storms that blew over the south. It was scary, shocking, devastating and everything in between. The storm hit my city really bad that my power was out in my apartment for several days. I eventually just headed back to my home because it was not livable. I left all of my friends on short notice and it was hard. But I know this was really, really hard on my family. I made it out alive (obviously) and I'm so blessed that nothing happened to me or any of my friends. 


So here we go back at home: Most of my friends had gotten in touch with me that were from high school or friends that I didn't go to school with to ask if I was okay. But, to my surprise NOTHING from Nate. Zip. Nadda. Nothing. I finally think, well, I'm just going to text him to see what he says. I was trying to be all cute and say "Hey, I was wondering if you were ever going to ask if I got blown away like Dorothy!" His reply was 1) I didn't know it was that bad 2) I saw on FB that you were okay. 
Well thanks, that's great, but really? REALLY!? You couldn't have taken just a few minutes to make sure I'm really okay? *Sigh*


Well, I think he did feel bad that he never asked how I was. Then randomly out of nowhere- Nate: hey when are you waking up tomorrow? 
me: huh? 
nate: tomorrow 
me: uh 10, why? 
nate: see, I have this test tomorrow and I was hoping you would be a doll and wake me up in the morning to make sure I'm up. 
me: you're too funny. are you out partying or something?
nate:  nope, just studying
me: haha, well I feel bad for you since my finals were cancelled
nate: so would you? :)


Yes, I did. I gave in. So funny that after I gave him his "wake up call" I just happened to need one the next day. Oh, he was a "doll" and called me in the morning. This went on for a few days. It was actually really cute!


So over the past few weeks he has been bugging me to come down and visit him. Listen, I'm dying to. Just currently I don't have time with a job. Then finally he asks me to come down in a few weeks. It was the perfect timing so I said yes. OH. But oh. He then says "Oh actually, I have work that day...Bad timing?" I'm sorry bad timing? I asked for that day off. You can't? He finally says, oh well I guess I'll ask tomorrow at work if I can. YEAH. You better. For someone who keeps bugging me to visit him, you would think he would get pretty excited when I could finally come down to visit. Who knows. Updates to come.


In the mean time... I had a random guy friend from high school, who I'd really call just a mutual friend decided to facebook message me... oh David...


Here's to a night in another city...
